Little research on the husbands of alcoholic women has been reported. A few studies have shown that they often are alcoholics or are suffering from other psychiatric diseases. The present study describes 51 men, married to female alcoholics, as regards alcoholism, other psycho-social disturbances and mortality, and accounts for the marital situation after an observation period of 6-12 years. A comparison is made with a control group of married male alcoholics. About 50% of the husbands were shown to be alcoholics, 14% had been treated for psychiatric diseases and more than 10% were disabled due to somatic diseases. At the end of the observation period, one-third of both patient groups were still married, one half of the male and one-third of the female patients were divorced. Twenty per cent of the marriages among the male patients and 35% of those among the female patients had been terminated by death. Ten female alcoholics and 14 husbands died, which is a significant excess mortality for both sexes. Mortality among the husbands was higher than expected due to cirrhosis of the liver and diseases of the circulatory system.
关于酗酒女性的丈夫的研究报道较少。一些研究表明，他们往往也是酗酒者或患有其他精神疾病。本研究描述了51名与酗酒女性结婚的男性在酗酒、其他心理社会障碍和死亡率方面的情况，并说明了经过6至12年观察期后的婚姻状况。与已婚男性酗酒者的对照组进行了比较。结果显示，约50%的丈夫是酗酒者，14%曾接受过精神疾病治疗，超过10%因躯体疾病而残疾。在观察期结束时，两个患者组中均有三分之一的人仍处于婚姻状态，男性患者中有一半、女性患者中有三分之一离婚。男性患者中20%的婚姻和女性患者中35%的婚姻因一方死亡而终止。10名女性酗酒者和14名丈夫死亡，这对两性来说都是显著的超额死亡率。丈夫的死亡率高于预期，原因是肝硬化和循环系统疾病。
